“The failure” and the reconstruction of Ahzoun are launching the demand for investigation in the management of the University

After monitoring a clear “negligence” in preparing runners for international competitions, none of them qualify for the World Athletics Championship 2026, according to the minimum specified by the International Federation of these sports, as well as the absence of “the principles of governance” in management and “breach” with the principle of deliberation on responsibility in light of the reconstruction of Abdel Salam Ahzoun on her head, the National Authority for Combating Corruption in Sports demanded to open a comprehensive investigation in the way of managing the university Moroccan Athletics Royal.

The commission raised this demand, in a communication reached by Hespress, stressed that “what happened during preparations to participate in the World Athletics Championships inside the hall scheduled in the Chinese city of Nanjing, which is specified between 21 and 23 March 2026, reflects the size of the imbalances that this university suffers from at the level of management and management.”

She explained that “the failure of any Moroccan hostility to qualify according to the minimum determined by the International Athletics Federation, and the limitation of participation to only three runners based on the world rankings, is a sports scandal by all standards and raises more than one question mark on the method of managing resources and the absence of clear preparation and qualification programs.”

The authority stressed that “it has become clear that the Royal Moroccan Athletics University suffers from the absence of a strategic vision capable of preparing a new generation of Moroccan runners who are able to compete in major international benefits.”

Considering, the National Anti -Corruption Commission in Sports recorded a “clear default in preparing runners for international competitions, and the absence of a clear action plan to advance the sport of athletics at the national and international level”, noting that “the lack of respect for the principles of good governance in the financial and administrative management of the Royal Moroccan Athletics University, especially in the absence of accountability and transparency in the management of resources.”

It also shed light on this aspect on “a violation of the requirements of Law No. 09.30 related to physical education and sports, especially in the part related to the duration of the assignment of the heads of sports universities, as the continuation of Mr. Abdul Salam Ahzoun at the head of the university for 19 years is a violation of the principle of circulation on responsibility.”

The same authority called for “opening a comprehensive investigation in the way the Royal Moroccan Athletics University, especially at the level of financial and administrative management”, called for “the activation of the principle of linking responsibility to accountability, through the accountability of the President of the Royal Moroccan Athletics University on the reasons for this decline, and the extent of his respect for the requirements of Law No. 09.30 regarding the duration of the mandate and the management of resources.”

She confirmed that she retained “her right to resort to all available legal mechanisms, in order to impose respect for the law, and to ensure transparency and integrity of the management of national sports affairs.”

“Accumulated failure”

Zuhair Esdour, head of the National Anti -Corruption Commission in Sports, stressed that “since Morocco harvested a meager yield in the Paris Olympics in a clear way clearly the retreat of the Royal Moroccan Athletics University at the level of management, the authority has realized that the accumulation of the university’s failure in regional and international sports demonstrations is evidence of the existence of bad management and management of this organization; If it were otherwise, its results would have appeared on the ground.

Asbour said, in a statement to Hespress, that “the University of Athletics, in turn, shares a problem present in many sports universities, related to the construction of officials on their head for years without being able to achieve any honorable results,” stressing that “all sports bodies concerned with this problematic will be the subject of correspondence and data issued by the National Anti -Corruption Commission in Sports.”

As for the legal mechanisms that the authority can resort to to impose respect for the law in the management of the athletics university, the authorized himself stated that it will “correspond to the Ministry of National Education, First Education and Sports in order to hold responsibility and demand it to intervene to end the violations of the measure in this regard, as long as the law gives it this possibility in its relationship with sports universities.”

And he brought out that “the law is granted to all university presidents the right in only two states, this period that Ahizon has overcome,” stressing that “the author of the authority must make it worse, whether it is a team or a member inside the university, to advance the legality of his survival as president, that the authority supports any person who eventually fights sports corruption.”

“Clearly declining”

Al -Tohamy Bammal, a member of the Administrative Council of the National Anti -Corruption Commission in Sports, spoke about its monitoring of “a dangerous decline in the results achieved by Morocco in athletics sports during the period of the presidency of Abdel Salam Ahzoun, compared to last years,” noting that “the material capabilities are available, which asks for the defect, is it at the level of management or preparation and training of hostilities.”

In a statement to Hespress, Belmem stressed that “in terms of training while the country reached the level of preparation and graduation of professional football, for example, we find that there is a lack of interest in training and forming heroes in athletics. The competitions that are held in these sports remain weak and occasional; What causes not to explore many energies in this sporting field.

The civil activist himself stressed that “in the presence of a person far from any sport at the head of the athletics university, it is not possible to wait for the latter to achieve except the bad results.”
